Priceline Hotel: 3 adults in 1 room?

[pc1980]

Hi,

I'm travelling with my mom and sister in March to Miami and would definitely like to stay the 3 of us together in one room!

Is there any chance I might book a hotel through PRICELINE and the hotel won't allow us to stay the 3 of us in one room? How should I manage this?

Many thanks!

Welcome to Betterbidding! :)

The issue regarding three people in a room via PRICELINE is that the service does not guarantee 2 beds. While PRICELINE users may request two beds, it's up to the hotel whether or not to grant the request - and, due to availability or policy, they may say no. While this is not as much of an issue in some Florida cities, it may be an issue in Miami, especially if it's a busier period.

What are your dates of travel, and what would be your desired budget per night?

Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links.

Ideally Aventura or Miami beach.

Were you including South Beach when you mention Miami Beach?

It's up to you how much risk you're willing to accept, but in the Miami Beach area (especially South Beach) i don't think i would take the risk of booking double occupancy and hoping for the best when showing up with triple occupancy. There are many smaller, independent, hotels in this area which may not be willing to accomodate your request for a room with two beds or one which can handle triple occupancy... and if they are willing to do so, there could be an additional charge.

I would more likely look at HOTWIRE for this stay which allows you to book for up to quad occupancy, the price will likely be a bit higher than booking double occupancy thru PRICELINE (or even double occupancy thru HOTWIRE for that matter) but at least you'll be assured of sleeping accomodations for everyone in your family... i'll assume that your beyond the age of sleeping on the floor as being acceptable.
